  1. Films of your/BDS activity and other relevant films may be shown on Portland’s community access tv and about 2,000 other similar tv stations nationwide at very little cost (under $100) and time! We and others nationwide have been doing this and the results are phenomenal. More info on our site, http://www.gisfilms.org.

    Outstanding effort by your BDS group and other groups worldwide.

    Guys, You ROCK!
    I am an Egyptian, and heard about your movement through internet: you guys are truly fighters for freedom 🙂

    And great song too 🙂 Keep it up… Americans unfortunately need lots and lots of awareness about this subject, amidst the manipulation of media.

    You are the best 🙂
    Thank you 🙂

    Great action, in Portland. Congratulations from Strasbourg, France.
    Justice will prevail, Palestine will be free, unless people like you, people around the world, quit their call for
    freedom and respect OF THE OTHER.
    Freedom for Palestine, Stay Human!

    Instead of trying to destroy the economy of the only democratic country in the Middle East, perhaps you could attempt to reach out to your fellow Israelis and help find a peaceful solution. Your boycott is as harmful to the Palestinian plight as the violent intifadahs of the 80’s and 00’s. Ironically, while your organization is boycotting Israeli couscous, the Syrians are massacring their people in the street. You are targetting Israel while giving a free pass to countries that are actually committing war crimes. One has to wonder why you are so obsessed with ONLY Israel. You claim not to be anti-semitic, but it seems like the only country you target is the Jewish state…even though Israel has a full fledged democracy where Arabs play an intricate role including generals in the army, supreme court justices, police chiefs, actors, models, etc. We are fortunate enough to live in America where most people are level headed enough to see past what your organization truly is…an anti-semitic anti-israel bashing machine.

    • Rami Hamouri says:

      its not a jewish state, there is no where or no religion says you have to your own state based on your religion. GOD is not a real estate agent what they do it wrong from the begining u cant say am jewish i belong to my state and you go to the land start killing and take it over or you cant say am muslim or christain or what ever and take over a land cause on holy books doesnt mention you have to take the land is promised and just kiil, all the religions say you can live next to each other but zonist destoyred it all

    • I have enormous respect for your thoughtfulness and lucidity in argumentation. However, you’re speaking to a half-insane fringe group with a hodgepodge of hardcore followers. You cannot use logic or worse, historical facts (treaties, wars, White Papers, etc.) since your interlocutor is not actually an interlocutor, but an automaton. Your average bourgeois BDSewerite is pre-programmed to vomit Anti-Semitic invective, historical lies of criminal proportions (the writers of the Protocols are tossing with glee in their crypts over BDSewer’s slanderous activities) and general untruths of the first and worst order.

      Come join us on the Facebook Page entitled ‘The Jewish Internet Defense Forces’.
      WE STAND LIKE A MERKAVA TANK OVER FIFTY THOUSAND STRONG AND COUNTING.

      Again, my admiration and respect.

  13. HOW DO WE ARRANGE TO BOYCOTT ISRAELI-OWNED TEVA PHARMACEUTICALS? (THE LARGEST AND MOST SUCCESSFUL GENERIC DRUG PROVIDER ON PLANET EARTH)

    I WOULD LIKE TO PATRONIZE MERK, PFIZER AND THE DIRTY POLITICIANS WHO COLLUDE WITH SAID ILLNESS-PUSHERS – LOBBYING TIRELESSLY TO PREVENT AMERICANS FROM GAINING THEIR BASIC HUMAN RIGHT TO UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE.

    *** I DON’T WANT JEWISH GENERICS! I WANT TO PAY MORE!

    ISN’T IT IRONIC THAT WE’RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A GLOBAL ECONOMIC CALAMITY AND ISRAEL’S ‘NUMBERS’ INDICATE A *** ZERO EFFECT *** RELATIONSHIP? AND WITH A FAILING BOYCOTT ON TOP OF IT?

  18. Greeting for you guys from Freedom Youth in Egypt 🙂

    We hope Americans boycott Isra-hell in all aspects as we do until they give Palestinians their rights and stop their crimes against civilians and stop their lies of being the only democratic state in Middle-East and their Anti-semitism issue they use to delete other people opinions .

    We wish all American people know the truth of Isra-hell as we don`t put any hope on American government to stop their unlimited support to Isra-hell (baby killers)

    we`ll be so happy If we can help you 🙂

    thanks for your support and best wishes for you all 🙂

  19. zaza says:

    What you did are totally amazing. Israel is democratic country but the way the treat Palestinian is obviously shameless. They have no difference with the former apartheid regime in South Africa.

  20. nada haitham says:

    great work. we r proud of u here in Egypt . how i can help u to support palestine? and how to be a part of BDS?
    plz reply me 🙂

    • SOS says:

      Look for your local BDS group in Egypt or start your own. Look at the international BDS website for information. Together we will succeed.

  21. S_Jore says:

    As someone who lives and works in Egypt, I want to tell you “Bravo” for your excellent initiative ! It’s currently circulating via FB 🙂

  22. Sami says:

    Guys, I am Egyptian, And you totally do not know what are you doing. I do Support Israel. And I do support the Israeli products, And you just do not know anything happening there in Israel. If you just read what Muslims says about Israel you would understand why you really need and have to support Israel.
    Hope you understand what you doing is wrong…..
